    Las alquerías de la antigua Axarquía de Málaga : asentamiento y características.
    (Sociedad Española de Estudios Medievales., 2023) Ortega López, David
    This research work deals with the rural settlements of Andalusia located to the east of the land of Malaga, specifically the axarchic farmhouses. Making use of both archaeology and written documentation we have collected twenty-seven farmhouses where we set ourselves the objective of knowing the settlement patterns, as well as their characteristics and urban composition in order to discover where and how they adapted and were arranged in a mostly mountainous physical environment and what differences and similarities existed between them depending on their buildings. The results will allow us to know a large number of unequal settlements in demography and extension which were developed according to the exploitation of rainfed agriculture of the Montes de Málaga.

    Fantasmas o revenants en el medievo: antecedentes de elementos fantasmagóricos en "El Formicarius" de J. Nider
    (Sociedad Española de Estudios Medievales, 2020) Agustí Aparisi, Carme
    Proponemos en este artículo explorar antecedentes de elementos fantasmales en la Edad Media mediante la tratadística didáctico-moralizante de la época. Desde la antigüedad, la mayoría de apariciones se vehiculaban mediante los sueños. Posteriormente y con el cristianismo, serán propios de la cultura medieval temas macabros como el de los tres muertos, que se manifestarán a los tres vivos para advertirles de la fugacidad de los placeres mundanos. En el medievo aparecerán muertos reclamando un buen entierro, clamando venganza por su muerte, o bien, simplemente incordiando y burlándose de los mortales. Para constatar todo esto, analizaremos relatos del tratado de Johannes Nider, el For-micarius (1437-38), importantísimo no solo porque sirvió de base al posterior Malleus Maleficarum (1486-87), sino porque se trata de la primera exposición sistemática que se escribió sobre estos temas: apariciones de fantasmas, casos de brujería, endemoniados y exorcismos.

    Palafanguers. Los especialistas del drenaje agrícola medieval en humedales mediterráneos ibéricos.
    (Sociedad Española de Estudios Medievales., 2023) Torró, Josep
    The palafanguers had the responsibility of establishing and maintaining agricultural drainage networks in Valencia and other Iberian Mediterranean areas since the 13th century. Most of them came from the kingdom of France and other regions where the spade was the agricultural tool par excellence, and where the transformation of wetlands was of greater magnitude and complexity than in the Mediterranean environment. The development of qualifications among these professionals, from the 15th century onwards, generated an internal differentiation from which emerged those who were recognised as masters. The migratory dynamic, favoured by the discontinuity of local demand, seems to have played an important role in this process.
